seems petty but, how did you pick your truck number?

    Told you guys Tony owes us for last year's championship. In a weird sort of way this season might shape up to be the same. Me and my girlfriend almost went to this race, it was a toss-up, we chose upcoming Bristol race instead. He better win it lol!

    My trailer is 60A. I learned real quick to say "my trailer number is 60 A as in Apple".

    Other wise they'll write 68 every time.

    That's the downside of letters. The "as in apple" becomes, colloquially, part of the number. Because it's required every time.

    Hey-It's not my truck though i got to number it.Nobody knew we had to have a number thinking the returned Penske lease truck number worked.My first suggestion was 4355.Look at your phone.The second was 2006 the year they started the company.Nobody liked that.So i had four people there and me starting with 0-9 then 1-5 pick numbers eliminating them as they were used.Came up with 18904.Makes it look bigger than a one truck company.Afterwards BR-549 seemed like a better idea.Take care.Brian
